LyricsTraining can be particularly useful to teachers looking for a fun and entertaining way to teach new words and help students improve their listening skills. Although it's most appropriate for older kids, teachers could potentially use it with younger English-language learners, provided that they carefully curate age-appropriate titles. It's easy to use this site's print options to curate cloze-reading passages using students' favorite songs.
This app is very motivating. It can be downloaded in the phone or tablet or you can use it on the Internet. It has different levels and languages. You have to choose a song and the activity (multiple choice or karaoke) and play! Great fun specially for teenagers while they practice their listening.

FIND THE FICTION:
This is a Cooperative Learning structure suggested by Kagan. It is mainly a problem-solving task. It is fun because students need to search for the truth so that they can guess the fib. The teacher starts giving three statements about his personal issues to the class. Two of the statements are true, and one is false. Taking turns around the team, one student at a time reads their three statements as if they are all true. The other students on the team can talk to each other about which statement they think is the FIB.
What kind of person do you think I am? What have I done in my life or where have I been to?
Here there are three statements about myself. Two statements are true and one of them is false. What sentence is false according to you?
I can speak Swedish.
I have been to New York.
I’m from Barcelona.
Online resources:
I use this resource for flipped classroom activities. Students are assigned to watch a video and answer the questions at their own pace. Students can also be tracked by the teacher if the teacher sends them a class code. As a teacher, you can also create your own activities with authentic material (ted talks, songs, etc) and this material can be adapted based on the difficulty of questions related to the video.

News in Levels is an application to improve your English with world news and videos in three levels and you can also test yourself.
I use this website because I can create many activities from it. As most of my students are higher technicians, level 3 would be the appropriate one for them as it is the highest level, but you have levels 1 & 2 which will do for Secondary students as well.
